Chapter 101 Do You Have Faith on Me?

It only took Joseph a few hours to track down the anonymous person who sent the reporter the message and transferred the money.

**

Later that evening, in a nightclub, one of Joseph's bodyguards held a man up by his shirt's collar.

"Lord Smith, this is the man. He was high in a casino when I found him!" The guard said and kicked the man in the leg so that he fell to his knees.

Joseph looked at the man on the ground. He was tall with dark skin, and seemed to be rather strong, "Andrew?"

Kneeling on the ground and struggling, the man asked, "Who the hell are you guys? Why am I here?"

"It seems you have a short memory," Joseph took out the photos and asked sternly, "Tell me the truth, or you'll never have another chance to gamble! This will be the end of you!"

Andrew thought for a moment, then looked at Joseph. His eyes moved around nervously, but he didn't speak for a long time.

"Nothing to say?" Joseph ordered the men on either side of him, "Get him out of here! Call his creditors and let them collect the debts before taking his life ..."

"Don't!" Andrew panicked.

Joseph knew he would change his mind quickly. With a cold expression, Joseph continued, "I need to know every detail about these pictures!"

"Here's the thing ..."

Half an hour later, Joseph knew the entire story.

"Boss, I'm just cashing a paycheck! I didn't mean to hurt anyone. Please... please let me go!" Andrew begged for mercy.

"Let you go?" Joseph sneered, "Do you think I'll show mercy to a guy who bullied me?"

Joseph winked at his men, "Take him away, I'll deal with him when everything has been settled!"

The next morning, Joseph got a call from Kate. A huge smile appeared on his face, and he felt more energetic when he saw her name.

"Joseph, have you found anything? If you can figure it out, just me the evidence back, and I will do it myself!" Kate was upset and hadn't slept well.

"You're worried that it's going to be Samuel, aren't you?" Joseph snapped, he felt exceedingly jealous.

Kate immediately sat up in bed and replied in a huff, "Are you crazy? Maybe you will stop connecting me to him if I actually start to date him!"

"You better not do that!" Joseph said with sadness.

Kate was reluctant to argue with him and continued to ask, "What's going on now? By the way, yesterday, I clarified our relationship with reporters and the affair rumors. So, Joseph, congratulations, you have an excellent ex-wife!"

Joseph thought Kate's words were harsh, so he sarcastically said, "Yes, thank you for leaving our relationship so spotless!"

Over their marriage, Joseph always spoke to Kate with a cold tone, so she didn't notice that he was upset.

She laughed, "Don't mention it. As Lisa said, I'm just doing a good deed!"

Kate needed to change the topic, so she said, "I need to know, are you sure? If not…"

"Do you have faith in me?" Joseph interrupted.

"Huh?" Kate opened her mouth but could not form words; she didn't expect him to ask her that.

Her hesitation made Joseph a little angry, "Am I that lame in your eyes?"

He found himself caring about her answer; he had never been so serious.

"No, you're good, except for being a little short-tempered and overbearing toward me," Kate spoke honestly.

"That's quite a nice answer!" He exclaimed but thought about all he had done to her.

"Look, if you don't want to hear the truth, then don't ask!" Kate pouted and put Joseph on speakerphone so that she could get dressed.

"Don't worry; I'll handle it! Just take care of your company!" Joseph barked and hung up.

"Joseph, don't brush me off!" She yelled, only to find he had already hung up.

She gripped the phone and complained angrily, "It must be Anna, you're just trying to protect her!"

Joseph looked at the time of the call, and a satisfied smile crossed his lips.

**

At lunchtime, Joseph contacted Anna to meet him at his private restaurant. Anna should have been overjoyed, but she was nervous that he found out the truth. She was told that Joseph had captured Andrew.

Andrew didn't always answer his phone, and Anna didn't dare take the initiative to contact him without knowing where he was.

Although Anna felt guilty, she couldn't give up the opportunity to have dinner with Joseph.

"Joseph, sorry, I'm late. Hope you weren't waiting long," Anna said in a sweet voice.

Joseph was uncaring, "Oh, have a seat."

Her uneasy eyes lingered on his face, "You're...not mad at me anymore?"

Joseph laughed and shook his head, "How could I be? I was the one with the bad attitude before, please don't be mad at me."

Anna stared in shock, "Joseph, what...what did you just say?"

"I'm not mad at you," Joseph Smith said with a gentle smile.

"Are you kidding me?" Anna thought her cover had been blown. She never thought that Joseph would be kind to her.

"Why would I tease you?" Joseph said thoughtfully, "I've been cold recently because I said you made mistakes. But then I realized that I married Kate and she was pregnant with my child. Please, forgive me."

"Really?" Anna was so flattered that she burst into tears, "Joseph, I don't blame you. I am thrilled!"

"Well ... Why don't you move in with me?"
